    Athletic Directors that have the most to prove

    100% agree. Good coaches follow good NIL packages. We aren't getting a good coach with a Dollar General NIL. Not sure how they are going to remedy that issue. The problem is we pay Fred too much for the results.

    Fred should be fired today

    Imagine a team with chuckie, hunter, tonje, fiddler, saint, and Kyle as your base. Sucks to be us and get zero of these dudes. Does anyone really know if it was lack of interest or money? If we have a competitive NIL to get difference makers im all for letting Fred go. If this years transfer...

    NIT

    It might have been the correct play, but he needs more alpha in him to take the shot. He's by far the best player and the only person that could hit a shot all night. I would rather him take a contested shot that anyone else on the team taking a three last night. Be the dude and hit the game winner.

    OT: Luka to the Lakers, AD to the Mavs

    Agree. 3 white dudes (one fatty) and a 40 year old doesn’t scream lockdown defense. Celtics exposed Luka last year in the finals. Dude can score but is ball dominate. Both him and LeBron are ball dominate. Not sure either can play off ball.

    Fred, Fred, Fred.....

    Why does it suck? Weather, city, historically sucking in bball? All of them? I just don’t get how we can’t turn the corner with the resources. If you can win at ISU, KSU, Purdue and whisky I don’t see why we can’t win a freaking ncaa tourney game. Not asking for a title. Just one win.

    Fred, Fred, Fred.....

    The worst part is they are a tough watch. I've been down to a couple games and it's painful to watch. It's just ugly basketball. The roster is not athletic top to bottom and can't shoot. Tough combo to win games in the Big Ten. Do we not have the NIL to get players? If the answer is no, next...

    wasn't the hoopster with the goggles...

    Would be a huge boost if he could earn minutes.

    wasn't the hoopster with the goggles...

    My boy and I watched him in warmups. Hit 12 straight threes. It appears he can still shoot. From watching early season games the dude can’t guard. NU might be offensively challenged at times but they freaking play defense. The effort and rotations are amazing. He probably just needs to pick up...

    Big Husker booster N the house

    My son and I were in the row behind him. Seemed like a good dude. Taking pictures with everyone. Erstad was in the building as well with a huge dip. Good atmosphere and great win.

    Hoiskers play for Diamond Head championship as 4.5 favorite

    I was skeptical his first year, but the dude earns his minutes. Great role player.

    Malachi

    With the 105 limit you process dudes like this. Going into 3rd year with limited stats. He redshirted for a reason this year. Not like we had all conference dudes playing wr this year. You process the non contributors and replace with 4 star freshman that hopefully pan out.

    Hoiskers 8.5 favorites over Murray St in Hawaii

    Rodie was one of the best mascots. Enjoyed the Racers games when I was a kid.

    Neyor opting out of bowl game

    Are you sure? Who is going to drop a pass or get the ball stripped away in a key moment of the game? Man, I'll miss what he brings to the table......

    NIL Caps

    No professional league would survive with unlimited free agency. Everyone is essentially on a one year contract and can opt out of playing when they want (bowl games). Even the NFL suspends players without pay when you just opt to not play a game. How do you build a roster in this environment...

    NIL Caps

    I agree, but I'm concerned it's not that easy. The cap will just be what's published and it'll go back to bags of cash for additional players. They enforce any rules prior to NIL. I'm not sure what would make the NIL cap any different than the previous cheating. I think creating a limit on...
